    The S&P 500 finished the week up more than 5% recovering its losses from the week prior. The US economy is a zombie

    with the very real risk of a negative GDP quarter while Europe wonders how to get enough consensus and political courage

    to solve its sovereign debt problems. Our prediction that markets would bounce from tested lows however was correct

    and the markets finished with a strong week. The news flow was full of meetings and comments by government leaders

    about a commitment to stable markets and support for the Euro. The fundamentals however havent changed as Greece

    is insolvent and there is risk in Spain and Italy. Now that markets have rallied to the channel median line the majority of

    risk is to the downside. A possible head and shoulders pattern is also in play. Something will need to change in either

    direction to end this sideways pattern. Talk of lower earnings by US and Global corporations could be the weight that tipsthe scales. Visit my technical analysis blog for more information at http://www.sealionllc.com

    Chart Notes

    Possible lower high with shooting star candle

    Prices are now above the median line of the bullish channel

    and have found short-term resistance.

    Prices rally through resistance and out of the channel. A

    consolidation will be required before the next move up.

    No consolidation yet as prices are rising along channel

    resistance.

    Prices retreat to prior resistance now support for

    consolidation

    Prices testing lower channel support and need to reverse

    quickly to maintain the rally

    Prices could be back testing setting up a move lower but

    more likely the channel needs to be redrawn or this is a

    temporary noisy overshoot.

    Prices have no violated the channel support and are trying a

    back test. The back looks weak in nature.

    Prices have broken through the channel and head lower

    gyrating around their median line.

    Prices have exceeded their channel but consolidated and

    stopped under prior channel support. This bull trap will

    reverse shortly.

    Prices under old support line from prior channel and at

    resistance of redrawn channel.

    With resistance tested and in place prices have moved

    lower and begin their move to the bottom of the channel.

    Prices move aggressively half way across the channel and

    are driving toward channel bottom.

    Prices reached channel bottom and have bounced. The

    hammer bottom should hold and prices should rise from

    here.

    Prices are gyrating sideways and forming a base from which

    they can bounce. The bounce may be short lived.

    Prices overshot channel and horizontal support but another

    hammer should start the rally back across the channel.

    The bottom is in. The inverted head and shoulders pattern

    is complete and prices have taken out the highs of the

    consolidation.

    Rally has comes swiftly and may leave just as quickly. I am

    keeping this momentum on a short leash.

    Market rolls over and settles at near term prior lows. If we

    get a bounce here a channel may form.

    Markets rally to the median line

    Markets selloff but quickly return to the median line again.

    Chance to break out of this channel and gain market

    confidence. A move to the downside will reinforce the

    markets sense of misery.

    Misery is here

    An upward sloping channel has formed and through time

    may break out the downward sloping channel.

    Testing channel lows again.

    Rally to the channel median line presents potential

    resistance.

    Prices continue to move sideways but have cleared the broad down sloping channel. The rally to

    the median line increases the risk of downside here especially if a head and shoulders pattern is

    forming. Sideways cant last very long.

    Chart #2IWM, iShares Russell 2000 Chart Notes: Possible change in trend needs confirmation with a

    new high.

    to move higher.

    soon.

    Prices failed to hold their afternoon rally and are now

    moving lower.

    Prices gapped lower and may now challenge the lower

    portion of the channel.

    Having found the bottom of the channel and bounced

    with a hammer prices should rise from here in the

    near term.

    Prices are bouncing around support and forming the

    base necessary to move higher.

    Prices put in another hammer ad tiis one should

    stick and prices should move higher from here

    The bottom is in. An inverted head and shoulders

    pattern is complete and the highs of the consolidation

    have been taken out.

    Rally has comes swiftly and may leave just as quickly.

    I am keeping this momentum on a short leash.

    Prices have rallied short of the median line and sold off. A little more rally may be left but the

    median line may prove strong resistance. Sentiment rather than fundamentals is driving the Euro at

    the moment. Pessimism over the Euro zone will continue to weigh on the pair over time.

    Chart# 3EUR/USD, Eurodollar Chart Notes: Markets bullish trend broken with violation of

    prior swing low.

    Markets bounces and reverses but puts in a

    lower high.

    Market retests $1.40 low and if it holds a

    sideways channel is in place.

    Prices reverse on support in an evening star

    reversal in a show of strength and the

    markets wiliness to be open to risk.

    Prices have failed to advance the reversal and

    are now below the reversal high. A retest of

    lower channel support looks likely.

    Prices made a dead-cat bounce and will head

    lower to range support.

    Prices have edged higher but are still below t he

    median line and are poised to reverse.

    Prices rallied just short of the prior high and

    have begun to possibly reverse. A reversal

    would correlate with a downturn in equities.

    The Euro strengthens against a weak dollar and

    mild concern over the US debt ceiling crisis.

    Prices will reverse shortly.

    Prices reversed hard today and a new

    downtrend has begun.

    Prices paused in their move down but this is

    temporary as the next moves are lower.

    Prices finished lower but have not closed low er

    than the lows of last week. A break of the

    median line will accelerate the selloff.

    Watch for a short term bounce at the median

    line before prices continue lower.

    Prices have returned to the media line with the

    focus off the US debt ceiling and squarely on

    Ital y and Spain. Lower Euro will continue.

    Price continues to dance along the median line.

    As near term momentum continues to slow it

    will setup the next more dramatic mov e to the

    downside.

    Prices have bounced on the media line but no

    significant new high was made. Lower prices

    ahead.

    Prices at the extreme top of the channel.

    Lower prices should start now.

    Prices roll over quick to the median line

    Price now testing the bottom of the channel. A

    bounce is likely.

    Rally off the bottom but a big sell off as price

    approached the median line

    Why Sea Lion Capital Management?

    Everyone needs help investing money. Whether for retirement or addi-

    tional income everyone wants to benefit from our free market capitalist

    system to increase their wealth. The problem is most individual investors

    lose money. In every trade there is a winner and a loser and the global

    marketplace moves so fast and is so complex the "Average Joe" investor

    has no chance. Most individual investors end up losing money in misplaced

    stocks and mutual funds. The psychological pain of watching hard earned

    money be lost makes most individual investors "buy high and sell low".

    More than half of all managed mutual funds cannot even keep up with the

    market indexes. If you have invested in the past and are frustrated with

    the lack of quality returns we can help.

    The Difference

    Sea Lion Capital is a unique approach to wealth management. While most

    investment advisors require their clients to have hundreds of thousands of

    dollars we can work with you with as little as $10,000. Most investmentadvisors require you to use an expensive broker whereas Sea Lion Capital

    is partners with one whose commission fees are some of the lowest in the

    industry. We know everyone is concerned about wealth management but

    few know what to do about it. The internet has revolutionized home mort-

    gages, tax services, insurance, and other financial services - the time has

    come for Investment Advisory services as well.
